Against this specifically?

• Don’t ever expose your firewall/router management access to the Internet.
• Install firmware updates asap.
• Don’t be a an attractive target for nation-state hackers.

Additionally, ensure that you are following best practices for your own data by enabling MFA wherever you can and dont re-use passwords for any service.

They don’t want to lessen crime, not really anyway.

They want to increase prison labor capacity by arresting and charging more people

“We’re not liberal or conservative, we’re a secret third thing!(conservative)”

It can also happen if your password expired. Active Directory is infamous for just locking accounts if your user doesn’t change their password when they get the popup that it expired

I guess I’m chaotic good when I’m not just listening to audiobooks, but I like to find a Magic card that fits the general vibe of the book.

For example, I chose Lost in a Labyrinth for House of Leaves

With the US, there is also a culture problem to address. There are way too many people there that make 2A their whole personality.

Australia had its share of gun nuts, but they were both a small minority and didn’t have a whole lifetime of indoctrination telling them to prepare for the day the government will come for their guns

When Aunt Jemima became Pearl Milling Company

I can second the recommendation for “My lesbian experience with loneliness” absolutely incredible book that got me to buy every other book Nagata Kabi has made, sight unseen. (No regrets there either)

You’d think, but its easier to just charge an extra 20% and then blame China while pocketing the extra 3%.

We wont start mining for rare earth metals until they simply refuse to sell to us.

All they need to do is let people keep their original bsky handle when they switch to domain verification. You’d still see some copycat accounts, but the barrier of entry is now higher as it would require someone to purchase a lookalike domain name

Excel, Active Directory, and to a somewhat lesser degree MSSQL.

Good. This should be forced via regulations. Touchscreen controls are provably more dangerous than buttons due to the distraction.

fun fact: If you ever see any of those quirky “solve this complex equation for the Wifi password” It’s always either the phone number of the place, or the first X digits of Pi.

They did back when that was the windows logo.

Why not both

It’s a travesty that they aren’t called “Fuzzy Buzzies”

I am not a material scientist, but I would wonder if molten metals would radiate too much heat to the environment causing an efficiency loss

Just get better at hunting. You go out for hours at a time and never come back successful.

It’s a good thing that the pantry always has food, otherwise we’d be in trouble.

Oh yeah, Project management is one of those roles that is especially vulnerable to the Peter Principal.

In order to be a good one, you need to be part therapist and part hostage negotiator while also being one of those weirdos that enjoys meetings

A few competent project managers would probably help things quite a bit, actually.

Having a single point of contact for several disparate teams of people doing real work so that they can actually do that work, instead of spending extra time in endless meetings arguing over the best way to implement something that requires multiple people’s input is a valuable tool to have.

Think of them like a tank in an RPG, taking all the meeting hits that would otherwise decimate the effectiveness of people actually putting the real work in.
